12:30 PM A Collaborative Approach: How to Adapt a Scalable Model for Greater Engagement with General Practice
Since 2016, Queensland is shifting its focus at a ministerial level to address the fragmentation between primary and secondary care, increase general practitioners’ engagement within the health system and ensure that its state-wide initiatives benefit both the health service and primary care. Nalani shares her experience undertaking a wide-scale engagement program that aimed to empower general practitioners, acknowledge their feedback and build trust across the sectors to create better health outcomes.
Learn how to:
- Adapt this model in your own local health district or health service to better understand general practitioners’ needs and expectations and create a more holistic health system
- Build a trust relationship between sectors utilising wide-scale face to face engagement
- Overcome challenges around the lack of understanding of needs and expectations from both sides of the system and barriers to establishing trust with general practitioners to ensure a streamlined patient journey
